When we hear the name David Blaine our minds cast to the words
"Street Magic". Whilst growing up David Blaine was fascinated with magic
and everything involved. Fascinated by the wonders of magic David has
made a name as one of the most heard about street magic performers
throughout the world. With tricks and stunts which can not be explained
it is no wonder that people to this very day remain amazed. It was this
kind of street magic that David performed which took magic tricks and
magic shows to a whole new level - Instead of the audience concentrating
on the magician it was more like an audience focusing on an audience,
therefore leaving the ultimate watchers even more in dismay as to how
his tricks were really done. As a result of Davids awesome shows and
style many other magicians and illusionists have come from the woodwork
with even more amazing tricks taking this whole new era of magic and
illusions to a completely different level.The type of magic known as street magic has inspired many more magicians, mentalists and illusionists to adopt a whole new style of performance.The audience within an audience concept of magic has shown the world just how exciting and spontaneous magic can really be and that it is not just some old plonker pulling a rabbit from a hat. That tricks could be performed spontaneously and without practice before random street goers showed the world that magic was once again exciting. David Blaine is not only known for his street magic but also very well known for his endurance stunts which no other magicians have ever performed. He has shown the world a countless number of times that he can endure what most people will never be able to endure in their life. One endurance test that springs to mind would be the time he held his breath in a tank of water for 17 minutes and 4 1/2 minutes setting a brand new world record. This can even be seen in the Guinness world book of records.
